Oregon Recruit Rashad Streets Pushing to Flip 5-Star Ohio State Commit

Oregon Ducks first-year defensive coordinator Chris Hampton and edge coach Kamran Araghi landed a big-time commitment from five-star edge Rashad Streets out of Milbrook in Raleigh, North Carolina, back on April 3. He chose coach Dan Lanning's program over the Alabama Crimson Tide, Ohio State Buckeyes, and NC State Wolfpack.

Now, Streets is doing some recruiting of his own with a fellow pass rusher from the 2027 recruiting class.

Ohio State Buckeyes Commit David Jacobs to Flip?

During Streets' official visit back on June 19, a video recap was made by JaiVizuals on YouTube. He shared this message with Ohio State five-star edge commit David Jacobs:

“Come to the O, bro. Don’t stay at Ohio State. That s*** ass, I ain’t gonna lie," Streets said.

Jacobs, a 6-5 and 235-pound product, pledged his commitment to coach Ryan Day on Jan. 29, 2025, and recently went on his official visit to Columbus, Ohio, on June 12, 2026. In his first three high school seasons with Blessed Trinity Catholic in Roswell, Georgia, he collected an astounding 305 total tackles, 73 tackles for losses, 34 sacks, and five forced fumbles.

Rivals lists Jacobs as the prized edge rusher in the 2027 recruiting class, the No. 3 overall recruit in the nation, and the No. 2 prospect coming out of the state of Georgia. He would complement Streets nicely when rushing opposing quarterbacks and preventing the outside run side-by-side with the Pacific Northwest powerhouse.

What Oregon Ducks Commit Rashad Streets Brings to the Table

As for Streets, the 6-3 and 240-pounder combined for 226 total tackles, 75 tackles for losses, 41.5 sacks, seven forced fumbles, four pass breakups, three fumble recoveries, and one safety across 27 contests during his sophomore and junior high school seasons. His physicality, top-heavy speed, and high energy are what drew the attention of Oregon defensive line coach Tony Tuioti, who was his primary recruiter.

Per Rivals, Streets is ranked as the nation's No. 32 overall player, the No. 7 competitor at his position, and the No. 3 recruit coming out of the state of North Carolina. He's also a multi-sport athlete in track and field throwing events.

With the Ducks losing a majority of their firepower on the defensive line after the 2026 season, some pressure is put on the five-star talent in his first year in Eugene, Oregon.
